Chapter 166: The Intense War



The capital of the Sea Beast Kingdom, Sea Beast City, is considered a large city in the entire southeast region. The city has a population of hundreds of thousands and gathers the surrounding intelligent sea beasts and a large number of ordinary humans.

The entire city is very different from cities on the mainland. It is built on the mountains and by the sea. There are several important ports in the north of the city. These ports are the main channels connecting the island country with the mainland. What is even more strange is that the core area of ​​the entire city is not on the island, but in the coastal area of ​​the island. There is a height difference of tens of meters between the entire coastal area and the island.

Below this gap is a huge marine building area built on the continental shelf. This building area forms a good combination with the buildings on land. The overall style changes are not big, which makes the whole city more harmonious and beautiful.

However, the harmonious beauty of the city does not significantly affect its citizens. At least in this beautiful city, the ordinary humans living on land and the sea beasts living in the ocean are not harmonious.

In this city, ordinary humans are just slaves of sea beasts. Whether in the ocean where sea beasts live or on land, there is no laughter or joy on the streets, not even a hint of liveliness.

The ordinary humans who make up the majority of the city have no time to go shopping. They either serve the sea beast masters in their houses on land, or transport goods in coastal ports, or build new and more beautiful houses for the sea beasts on the edge of the city.

This is a paradise for sea beasts, but a hell for humans.

This kind of oppression of the human race is not unique to the Sea Beast Kingdom. It is a very common scene in the entire fantasy continent, especially in the southeastern hilly areas.

As ordinary humans with many advantages such as intelligence, inability to resist, and lack of spiritual power, they are the best slaves in the eyes of these spiritual races, and are slaves that will never be at risk.

The entire Sea Beast Kingdom has a total of 5 million ordinary human population, most of whom are distributed in coastal areas, producing for and serving the sea beast tribe in the ocean.

·····

At this time in the royal capital, at the busy port, the short ordinary humans were carrying goods for the sea beast masters. They were pale and thin, with numb expressions. They carried cloth bags that were much heavier than their own weight and transported the grain grown by their own people onto the ship.

These batches of ships will carry the fruits of their labor and exchange them for more benefits for the sea beast masters.

"Ergou, I miss the village a little bit!"

A thin man, panting, said along with the stronger man next to him.

"call!"

Ergou put the cargo onto the boat, then let out a deep breath, the hot sun shining on his darkened back.

"Ah! Once this batch of food is transported, the master should take us back."

Ergou dusted off his hands and said to the skinny monkey next to him.

"Ergou, I think farming is still the best option. Working at the port is too tiring, and the adults won't even let us eat enough..."

The skinny monkey had a hunched back and could no longer lift his waist.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Ergou quickly covered his mouth, ignored the dust on his hands, and continued to work with Shouhou.

"After this season's grain is transported, the master said he would give us two wives as a reward. By then, we will be considered family men. What will these chores mean to us?"

Ergou comforted.

Although life is tiring now, I have hope, at least...

······

The soldiers of the Shenqi Kingdom built a defensive line on the northern coast, which extended from here to the mountains and forests in the north. More than ten kilometers away, the main force of the Sea Beast Kingdom was approaching.

"Test first, don't take the initiative to attack. We are currently focusing on stability."

Wang Kun calmed down the general who wanted to ask for a fight. At this time, the strength of the people from the Sea Beast Kingdom was still unknown. If they acted rashly, the casualties would be difficult to control.

However, the fact that Shenqi Kingdom avoided the war was not acceptable to the army of the Sea Beast Kingdom.

In the next few days, starting from ordinary infantry, to heavy infantry, heavy cavalry, and musket troops, the friction between the two armies intensified with repeated tests regardless of casualties.

The Shenqi Kingdom, which was in a defensive position, did not feel much pressure from these attempts, and with the cooperation of the musketeers and cavalry, it was able to launch a certain counterattack.

During this period, the level of these soldiers improved significantly. Every day, soldiers were replaced to the front line to undergo actual combat tests. From a general perspective, Wang Kun's control over these 200,000 soldiers became smoother.

After repeated high-intensity attacks failed to break through the defense line, the entire battlefield fell into a period of strange calm. The soldiers of the Shenqi Kingdom led by Wang Kun had become calm and skilled from their original tension, and a seamless land defense line was built.

However, this is not a favorable situation for both parties. The bay area alone cannot support the normal survival of the entire Shenqi Kingdom's population of one million, and the Sea Beast Kingdom will never allow a country to rise in the southeast.

There can only be one regime on a small island, and this is something both sides understand.

After two months of stalemate, the Shenqi Kingdom finally couldn't help but launch a major counterattack.

At this time, the First Front Army of Yan State has also arrived, and this counterattack will be their first show of force.

······

Nearly one-third of the time has passed since the entire fantasy continent was opened, and the situation has gradually become clear.

Seeing that there was no hope, many geniuses directly withdrew from the portal and defended the interior strictly. In this way, although they suffered a lot of losses in this war, they were able to preserve their main strength and would not end up like Kong Qi.

Kong Qi and the Kong family have shocked countless people, and most people see no hope when compared to them.

But this does not represent everything. For those who are more sober at the beginning, this migration is not without opportunities. In the entire God-forsaken Continent, in various tribal areas that have not formed a country, one portal after another is sending more representative troops to conquer these areas. These tribal city-states that have not formed a country have become the initial territories that most geniuses want to occupy.

In the south of the fantasy continent, there is a mountain range of undead that runs across the north and south. This mountain range is the main gathering place of the undead races in the entire fantasy continent.

And in the southernmost foothills of this mountain range, there is a huge city. This city gives people a lifeless feeling. The dark clouds that began to accumulate from the Mountains of the Dead extend here, and there is no sunlight all day long.

This is the gathering place of ghosts in the entire fantasy continent, the ghost town.
